MJT’s renewed partnership with Henry Brunton Golf Academy brings Blueprint™ to junior golfers
Vancouver, BC – (September 30, 2026) – The Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour (MJT), Canada’s number one-played Junior Golf Tour, is pleased to announce the renewal of its partnership with Henry Brunton Golf Academy (HBGA) through the end of 2028, continuing HBGA’s designation as the Official International Junior Academy of the MJT.
The renewed multi-year agreement builds on a shared commitment to developing Canadian junior golfers and creating meaningful pathways for athletes with ambitions of competing at the collegiate level and beyond. As part of the renewal, HBGA is also introducing Blueprint™, a new one-on-one virtual coaching and athlete development program designed to help Canadian junior golfers develop into NCAA-ready, NCAA-recruited student-athletes.
The renewed multi-year agreement builds on a shared commitment to developing Canadian junior golfers and creating meaningful pathways for athletes with ambitions of competing at the collegiate level and beyond. As part of the renewal, HBGA is also introducing Blueprint™, a new one-on-one virtual coaching and athlete development program designed to help Canadian junior golfers develop into NCAA-ready, NCAA-recruited student-athletes.
Blueprint™ brings a different model of high-performance development to Canadian junior golfers, built around a direct, one-on-one virtual coaching relationship with personalized leadership and support, focused on developing each athlete into a complete NCAA-calibre golfer.
Delivered through Zoom and CoachNow, each athlete receives an individualized development program covering every dimension of performance, including structured practice plans, statistical analysis, event preparation and tournament support, mental game training, course management strategy, strength and conditioning, and equipment optimization.
Blueprint™’s track record reflects that development-first approach, with 94 per cent of long-term Blueprint™ clients advancing to college golf and 10 students beginning their NCAA journeys this fall. Blueprint™ is not a recruiting or placement service; its focus is on building the skills, habits, preparation, and complete athlete profile required to become the type of student-athlete collegiate programs want to recruit.

“The MJT has always stood for something important — giving Canadian junior golfers the platform to compete, grow, and chase their dreams. That is exactly why this partnership means so much to me,” said Henry Brunton. “Through Blueprint™, we can now offer MJT members from coast to coast something that has never existed in this country before — direct, one-on-one coaching, leadership, and expert support from a PGA Hall of Fame Coach and Golf Canada’s first National Coach, built entirely around one mission: developing them into a true NCAA golf athlete. Canadian kids are ready to compete at the highest level. Blueprint™ gives them the system, the support, and the belief to prove it.”
The renewed partnership also continues to connect MJT members with HBGA’s full-service golf academies and high-performance programming at Eagles Nest Golf Club in Toronto, Ontario, and Royal St. Cloud Golf Links in Orlando, Florida. Each location offers best-in-class programs and services for golfers across a range of ages and experience levels.
Full-time students can enroll in HBGA programming during two annual semesters, running October 10 to December 10 and January 8 to May 8. Athletes unable to attend full-time can access HBGA Orlando’s Road to the NCAA Experiences in weekly or monthly blocks, subject to availability.
The partnership extension through 2028 reinforces a shared commitment to giving motivated junior golfers the competitive opportunities, expert guidance, and development resources to pursue their goals at the next level.
